Chapter 7. Sequencer (Recording/Editing)

Recording a Pattern [REC]

What is played on the pads or on an external MIDI keyboard
can be recorded (Realtime Recording).
Your performance will be recorded exactly as you play it,
including hi-hat control pedal movements and Positional
Sensing.
Please keep in mind that even though there are 100 user
patterns, the amount of memory available will be
determined by how much data is recorded into TD-12.
You can check the amount of memory available by
pressing [PATTERN] - [F3 (FUNC)] - [F3 (MEMORY)].
Storing performance data that describes every instance
where the Hi-Hat Control Pedal is used, and that
includes strike position detection rapidly consumes the
User memory.
